Thread 5009611

Tell us, friends, what are your thoughts on the Orange People and their superior forms?

I hate every ape I see.

>>5009616
Fuck off

>>5009616
Nobody asked you, Taylor, now go back to your cave.

>>5009665
I love how one of the Orangutan's favourite foods is called Rambutan

>>5009613
Is this achievable natty?

>>5009670
It looks spiky. How do they eat it? are those actually soft or do they just not give a fuck?

>>5009725
nah, what looks like spikes are more like the fibers on a raspberry
you peel the skin and eat the pale fruit hidden within

They are more human-like than chimps, if you ask me.

>>5009616
Fuck you

Pongrangutan
Orangupongo

>>5009616
Must be a nightmare to look in the mirror

>>5009611 (OP)
What's the consensus on this guy, related to the dryopiths/hominines or the sivapiths/pongines?

>>5009733
Agreed. There are outdated theories and modern schizo theories about them being more closely related. Some 19th century scientists went to indonesia to search for a common ancestor between humans and pongos.
In the end it doesn't really matter who's more closely related, as evolution isn't linear.
>>5009616
You're an ape

>>5009803
dude

>>5009725
i remember reading somewhere that orangutans use leaves as a sort of glove/napkin, to protect their hands, when eating spiky fruits like durian and rambutan. clever fellas.

>>5009733
there's a reason the soviet ape-man experiments wanted to use an orangutan
it never got off the ground because the only one they had died and they couldn't find another

>>5009616

>>5011801
can we declare gibbons honorary pongos?

>>5011155
do pongos have an obesity epidemic
i don’t mean to be rude, they just sometimes seem um… American-size for lack of a better term

>>5011806
it's just the way pongos are built
in the wild, they have to absorb all the nutrients they can from what little food they can find in the lean times, so it's only natural they got a bit pudgy with regular meals in captivity (plus not having to cover great distances in search of food doesn't help)
it's also why they're so slow compared to other apes, less movement equals less energy lost equals higher chance of surviving until you reach the next fruiting tree

>>5012107
I've noticed the same happens to a lot of people who have reptiles as pets. They feed them as if they were mammals so they end up obese

>>5012107

she cute

There’s a pongo in the new Donkey Kong game.

>>5013282
Lanky was a pongo, too

>>5013282
This is NOT how pongos look!

>>5014387
chimps(?) don't look like sexy businesswomen either

>>5013282
>takes orders from a prosimian
>flangelet
points for accuracy

>>5014464
I think she’s some kind of gibbon

>>5009616
we are gonna make a monkey out of (You)

>>5014468
>>5014464
she has a tail, she's probably a langur of some kind

and STILL the best baby pongo vid ever recorded!

yes, and i still want to slap the shit out of this mongoloid and kick it in the nuts and hear it squeal as it limps off. idk why i hate babies and young pongo shitsacks. their sqeaky squealing and whining along with their looks just flip me out. cant stand them....but the adults are so interesting and captivating.....

I think you're just mad you lost a dick measuring contest to him

Was he actually smiling or is that just gas?

>>5018933

>>5018922
The real planet of the apes is a good book if you're interested in evolutionary history of apes including pongines. More specific to the origin of pongines is work from Dr. Pillbeam.

>>5011575
Good take, I never thought of it that way
>>5014585
No, it's a tragedy and should not be remembered fondly

>>5020361
Is the pongo a female or an unflanged/juvenile male?

>>5020361

I wish his films survived

>>5020361
You can tell which one is the most sophisticated individual

>>5018922

post moar

>>5020694
a pongo in captivity anywhere is an injustice to pongos everywhere…

I'm quite fond of the orange people

just in case I'm unable to post following the bongs' Total Internet Death
I want all you friends to know that I really really like the Orange People

>>5021938
norfman pongo my beloved

>>5009734
just like us. nearly human.

>>5021938
still able to post
we laffin', pal

>>5009611 (OP)
orange man good

for me it's their hands
such long and strong fingers

>>5022368
nearly correctly implies not human.

The only good thing about this ape, whose scientific name sounds like a clown's name, is they have better sinus design so they're basically immune to nasal congestion unlike african apes.

We should steal their genes.

>>5023682
>only wants the sinuses
>no mention of the four hands
found the footfag

>>5022633
just think if budi where born in a pongo farm like a chicken farm he would have been tossed into the chick grinder and wiped from history as should have been instead of suffering through all these oh isnt the sick little monkey cute pics for years

we went to the zoo and saw this freak get fed. imagine seeing this in a jungle

>>5024255
that mesh roof
sad
at least it gets them climbing for their dinner?

new baby at Wingham Wildlife Park

>>5024414
oh my goodness gracious
pruny, umbilical cord still attached and all. so so so precious.

>>5009611 (OP)
It makes me sad that I would never be worthy to reincarnate as a based orangubro in the deepest wildest jungle.
Just fuck my pongo bitches, eat some nanners, take a nap, and rip a tiger in half once in a while just to prove I can.
But alas, my soul is not enlightened enough.

>>5024450
>rip a tiger in half once in a while just to prove I can
i don’t think they do that…

I think it’s funny that they sound like Gorons.

>>5023682
Continuous sinuses are yuor heritage....

>>5024266
Sad but not a bad idea. Otherwise you get ones like at the Toronto Zoo making their escape

such style

I think orangutans are cool

>>5025438
so fat and wonderful

>>5009611 (OP)
How does all that hair not get snarled and yoinked by all the tree roughage?

>>5025500
that’s.. actually a really good question
i’ve never thought of that before

>>5025500
>>5025524
at a certain length it does, but for the most part the humid conditions of the rainforest keep their hair nice and fine
if you compare a wild pongo to one in a zoo, you see that the captive chaps have dreads while the wild ones have a shorter frizzled cape

>>5025645
Kinda unfair to compare different subspecies in that pic.

>>5025661
most captive borneans are a mix of subspecies anyway
they didn't even recognise subspecies until about 20 years ago
zoos don't discriminate between them anyway since the population is so low as it is, excluding the suspected or confirmed mutts would destroy the captive breeding program

>>5025674
Shame. Nothing beats glorious Tapanuli curls.
I wanna save them so bad!

>>5025438
ah great another ancient glorified pic of a fat sickly budi. what ever happened to him? did he die?

>>5025889
he got the good ending. he was rehabilitated and has since been rereleased into the wild. good for him.

I have heard that both pongos and gorillas are less violent than chimpanzees.

>>5025944
100% true, friend
ignore the ancient propaganda
they were just envious of their jungle ways

>>5025931
>rereleased
they released him multiple times?

>>5026029
I'd say rereleased is the proper term since he was originally taken from the wild

whatever happened to jarang and jinga. that was the most entertaining video of her hanging around the cage with jarang on her leg. even with being a retarded baby with a messed up nutsack problem he could still hang on

>>5026259
have you ever considered googling your retarded bait questions instead

>>5025944
This is very likely true. Chimps are crazy because they live with gorillas who eat the same food, they're they're super food aggressive and violent. All the big guys and bonobos just chill out.

>>5025944
This is very likely true. Chimps are crazy because they live with gorillas who eat the same food, so they're super food aggressive and violent. All the big guys are more mellow.
https://cosmosmagazine.com/nature/animals/bonobos-arent-as-peaceful-as-previously-thought/

>>5026386
Where exactly do Chimps and Gorillas coexist? I can barely find images of them interacting.

Pongos and gibbons supposedly get along very well and sometimes even help raise each other's young. Zoos have no problem keeping them together in the same enclosure.

>>5027231
Stinky....

>>5027231
I forgot this meme was a thing.

>>5027231
what's the story behind this pongo?

>>5027894
Once upon a time he ate too many bananas

>>5026416
Where chimps live. They don't interact. They avoid.

>>5027918
once he had eaten the very last banana, his tummy became very round

>>5028020
His tummy became so round that is exploded, and it rained bananas - enough for everyone

>>5028158
from that day forth, each banana eaten would be followed by a great release of wind from the consumer's backside
in recognition, all onlookers would exclaim
uh oh

>>5026091
I'm still so happy our little avocado guy turned out to be a flangechad

>>5017876

>>5017876
this post makes me… jolly :)

He monky

>>5026091
smol ears

>>5031751
I really like this chap's beard
especially spledid

>>5029167

'flangechad" thats reaching a bit. his are so small they could just be face fat folds

>>5032273
He is very young

It is my belief that the pongo is the perfect middle ground between man and beast

>>5032437
It is my learned opinion, that we are just extremely shitty and low-budget pongos.

>>5019779
YES, YOU'LL NEVER MAKE A MONKEY OUTTA MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

*toot toot*

>>5033133
Look at him go

happy pongo day!

>>5038720
I wonder if pongos would enjoy a hot spring
I want to say that they wouldn't enjoy it since they tend to dislike being immersed in water, but snow monkeys seem to get a real kick out of them
maybe we all just enjoy a relaxing soak now and then

>>5033838
lol thats the face my monkey made when i tazed its stomach when it was swinging on the curtains

they are simply the best

Gibbons are lesser apes, the only group in that category.

Getting some good reaction images from this thread. Thanks anons

>>5041246

seriously?

>>5041770
I mean Awan was thematically named after her mother since they both have names that mean 'cloud' in chinese

>I wish his films survived

Well actually...

"Yes, at least one film featuring Joe Martin, the orangutan, survives today. The Max Linder feature comedy Seven Years Bad Luck (1921), in which Joe Martin has a brief appearance, is available and considered Linder's best surviving film. Additionally, Joe Martin appears in two extant episodes of the serial Lady Baffles and Detective Duck (1915), specifically episodes four ("Baffles Aids Cupid") and nine ("When the Wets Went Dry"). However, most of Joe Martin's other films, including approximately 20 comedy shorts, several serials, and features like Black Orchid, Trifling Women, and The Adventures of Tarzan, are considered lost."

damn he really was a good actor for the time

Does anyone have the original video of the pongo riding the bus?

>>5011806
They also have larger intestines to absorb food more efficiently than humans, we cook our food which makes it easier to digest. previous poster kind of touched on it but it was kind of ambiguous so I wanted to clarify.

>>5042679
I think it is very interesting that father and son pongo interactions are a behavior exclusive to zoos

>A group of orangutans is called a buffoonery! Orangutans are known for their playful, curious and sometimes silly nature, making this name a perfect fit.
i saw this on the Sumatran Orangutan Society website. is this true?

>>5045036
there is no official name
most of those names for groups of animals are just made up
I've heard primate keepers refer to their pongo groups as a 'family', 'mob', 'flange', and my personal favourite 'gangutan'

>>5045036
>>5045088
it should be a wheelbarrow of pongos

>>5045371
based

this totally triggers me .id pour petrol on them and set the whole wagon on fire. imagine the screams from baby monkey lovers

>>5044600
This. Family photos also only happen in zoos as well

Monke doesn’t pay taxes, monke doesn’t work 9 to 5. Monke lays around eating nanners and scratching his bottom and never worries about not having what he needs to survive.

>>5014585
wtf was this thing even for, I've never seen a climbing frame like that and it seems built to do what it did

>>5046612
actually i just hit its foot/ bottom hand? with a big hammer....

I used to think ginger people were descended from orangutans

why did he do it?

Placenta eating is such a weird phenomenon, I wonder if Ardipithecus did it.

>>5049121
Why not do it? it's free food

>>5049142
It's like eating your own intestines.

>>5049121
It's literally the same stuff as egg yolk.

>>5049121
Not really. Giving birth is a very strenuous activity for most animals, so having something like that they can eat, and recover and regain energy and nutrition after shitting out a littler of critters so you can get back on your feet and make sure they don't get eaten by coyotes.
People historically did it too. Some whack-jobs still do.

>>5049121
precious soggy little thing

truly the greatest treasure of all

look at all that hair! one lit cigarette butt flicked on them and phhooof!! they would be bald monkeys!!

did your mother never hold you while you both slept?
granted, being orange does seem to make it a lot more cosy

what do pongos smell like?

These monkeys sure are awfully silly

>>5009611 (OP)
it translates to Forest People, numbnuts

>>5058244
but they are orange and they are people-like, so is it really that much of a misnomer?

What if pongos were blue instead of orange?

>>5058369
some of them already have blue-ish skin
>What if pongos were blue instead of orange?
I would still adore them

Good bye cruel world.

me reading these threads

good news! the omaha zoo (arguably the best zoo in the US rivaling the san diego zoo) is expecting a new orange bundle of joy in february. picrel is the ultrasound but i can’t make out shit. the mom is 26 year old ruby and dad is 23 year old denda. the orangutan exhibit was also recently remodeled within the last few years.

the omaha zoo is actually my local zoo but it’s packed all the time. the new baby will no doubt attract many tourists. hope i get to see it but chances are slim. god damn tourists, keeping the zoo in business and shit…

>>5063105

hope you get a chance to see the little one in person when it finally arrives
